If They Only Manage Money, Fire Them | James Bogart - Part 2
Most wealth advisors gatekeep content and charge for advice. James Bogart built a $100M+ practice doing the opposite—giving everything away for free.
When COVID killed his dinner seminars, he went digital. First Zoom: 397 attendees. Within months: 100 new leads per week. The contrarian bet paid off.
The strategy wasn't generosity—it was game theory. No payment means no conflict. Free content creates relationships at scale. Digital compounds like interest.
The Free Content Flywheel:
→ Create educational content without gates
→ Distribute across multiple channels (webinars, podcasts, social)
→ Let quality self-select your ideal clients
→ Scale faster than hand-to-hand combat ever could
Here's what separates this from typical advisor thinking: He tells prospects to buy index funds if they only want money management. The real value isn't portfolio returns—it's tax integration, account structure, and behavioral accountability. A mid-level Exxon manager who lived below their means accumulated more wealth than company presidents. The how matters more than the how much.
The Three Account Framework:
→ After-tax: Flexibility, tax-inefficient growth
→ Pre-tax (401k/IRA): Deferred tax, mandatory distributions at 73
→ Roth: Tax-free growth forever if structured correctly
Most people optimize the wrong variables. They chase returns when tax strategy compounds harder. They hire for comfort when they need challenge. They wait to get advice when setup matters most.
Books mentioned:
Good to Great (Jim Collins)
Outliers (Malcolm Gladwell)
Various Rick Edelman financial literacy books
The Little Red Book of Selling (Jeffrey Gitomer)
For entrepreneurs scaling service businesses and families optimizing wealth transfer.
